But was his five-game suspension really a punishment at all, considering he won't miss a start? Instead his regular turn in the rotation will be pushed back by a day or two.

So really his penalty amounts to almost nothing and that has many baseball fans upset in how MLB dishes out suspensions for hurlers.

One such person is SILive.com user, mailman77777, whose remarks are Wednesday's "Sports Comment of the Day."

mailman77777 said:

"The people that run Major League Baseball are complete idiots. They suspend a Pitcher for five games, He only pitches once every five games so he basically won't even miss a start since the Red Sox have days off before his next start."

Do you agree with mailman77777 or do you have another opinion to add? Sound off by leaving a comment below!
